So one of the analysts Redwood City has taken offense to something I wrote last week to the point he has filed a complaint with my manager about unprofessional behavior, where's what I wrote:
So a week or two ago I sent something out about /postini/current/bin/logfetch not finding something that could be found with the one that was in /home/[author]/logfetch/lf.

Mr. borin opined that it was because I was using the -i switch. I have never had it explained so I could understand how -i could cause us to get incomplete information, duplication from an entry being split across buckets is clear but unless both buckets were missing it shouldn't be incomplete (and if both buckets were missing the -i switch won't matter). However the lf script was removed to address the conflicting returns.

He's furious about this, the thing that seems to have particulary irritated him is the use of the word "opined".

My working theory is he didn't know what it meant and assumed it was derogatory. We have a conference scheduled for later this morning to discuss it.
